15 Netwrk Manager 2. ATFCM OVERVIEW Air Traffic Flw and Capacity Management (ATFCM) is ne f the cnstituent parts f Air Traffic Management (ATM). The Netwrk Manager Operatins Centre (NMOC) prvides an ATFCM service t airspace users thrughut the Eurpean Civil Aviatin Cnference (ECAC) states. The NMOC is the successr f the Central Flw Management Unit (CFMU). The Internatinal Civil Aviatin Organisatin (ICAO) defines ATM as: Airspace Management (ASM). Air Traffic Flw and Capacity Management (ATFCM). Air Traffic Cntrl (ATC). As with any ther cmmdity, airspace is a valuable resurce, particularly when subject t high demand. Since airspace is a fixed vlume, ASM is a vital activity, invlving the planning, sectr definitin, use and management f airspace t satisfy the needs f the users in the mst efficient and equitable manner. Hwever, ecnmic activity and the surge in demand during certain perids, mean that the available air traffic cntrl capacity needs a smthing and prtectin mechanism t avid verlads and t make the mst efficient use f the airspace by prviding dynamic flw management. In this sense, ATFCM endeavurs t make airspace and aerdrme capacity meet traffic demand and, when the latest capacity pprtunities have been exhausted, make the demand meet the maximum available capacity. The latter part may result in flw measures which imply the allcatin f individual aircraft departure times (slts), as apprpriate, t cmbat bttlenecks and reduce safety risks as much as pssible. Thrughut all this activity, there is cntinuus cmmunicatin and exchange f infrmatin with all the Eurpean air traffic cntrl units and aircraft peratrs GOVERNING PRINCIPLES ATFCM prcedures, rles and respnsibilities in this dcument have been established in line with: a) ICAO prcedures as defined in the ICAO Dc. 4444, EUR SUPPs Dc 7030 and ICAO Dc. 7754, vl. II. These prcedures are amended fllwing the ICAO cnsultatin prcess. b) Prcedures specific t the ATFCM peratins accrding t the plicy and strategy develped and apprved by the respnsible EUROCONTROL bdies. c) Cmmissin Regulatin (EU) 677 / 2011 n ATM Netwrk functin (NM regulatin), Article 15 Detailed wrking arrangements and prcesses fr peratins. d) Cmmissin Regulatin (EU) 677 / 2011 n ATM Netwrk functin (NM regulatin), Annex VI.4 Operatins Manuals. e) Cmmissin Regulatin (EU) 255 / 2010 n air traffic flw management (ATFM regulatin) relevant articles NETWORK MANAGER (NM) AGREEMENTS EUROCONTROL cncluded NM Agreements (previusly knwn as Letters f Agreement r LAs) with the peratinal stakehlders which address administrative, legal, technical and peratinal matters relating t the Netwrk Manager services they subscribe t. The NM Agreements include annexes which cntain references t the cntact pints and applicable dcumentatin.

16 Netwrk Manager 2.3. AREAS COVERED The NM Central Airspace and Capacity Database (CACD) cvers several different gegraphical areas that have cmmn and uncmmn elements. The Flight Plan Message (FPM) Distributin Area (FPM DIST) is the area in which the IFPS is respnsible fr the distributin f flight plans and assciated messages. The ATFCM Area is the area in which the NM is respnsible fr the prvisin f ATFCM. It cmprises the fllwing states: Albania, Armenia, Austria, Belgium, Bsnia and Herzegvina, Bulgaria, Cratia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estnia, Finland, France, Gergia, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxemburg, Malta, Mldva, Mnac, Mntenegr, Mrcc, the Netherlands, Nrway, Pland, Prtugal, Rmania, Serbia, Slvakia, Slvenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the Frmer Yugslav Republic f Macednia, Turkey, Ukraine and the United Kingdm f Great Britain and Nrthern Ireland. Certain states are cperating with the NM by exchanging data with the NM and participating in the NM ATFCM service. These States are described as cperating States and the NM cllectively refers them as the ATFCM Adjacent Area. The NM prvides them with limited ATFCM services based n an NM Agreement which details the service level prvisin. Additinally, the FMPs f these FIRs may request t apply ATFCM measures fr the airprts within the FIR r fr significant pints at the interface between the FIR and the ATFCM Area. The NM may apply ATFCM measures t flights which: Depart frm within the ATFCM area. Enter the ATFCM area after departing frm an adjacent Flight Infrmatin Regin (FIR) within the ATFCM Adjacent Area. The latest update f the list f adjacent FIRs may be fund n the website: ATFCM PHASES The ATFCM prvisin in the ECAC regin is carried ut in fur phases: Strategic flw management takes place seven days r mre prir t the day f peratins and includes research, planning and crdinatin activities thrugh a Cllabrative Decisin Making (CDM) prcess. This phase cmprises a cntinuus data cllectin with a review f prcedures and measures directed twards an early identificatin f majr demand / capacity imbalances (such as: axis management, air shws, majr sprt events, military exercises, etc.). When imbalances are identified, the NM is respnsible fr the verall crdinatin and executin f strategic ATFCM planning t ptimise all available capacity and achieve perfrmance targets. The utput f this phase is the Netwrk Operatins Plan (NOP). Pre-tactical flw management is applied during the six days prir t the day f peratins and cnsists f planning and crdinatin activities. This phase studies the demand fr the day f the peratin, cmpares it with the predicted available capacity n that day, and makes any necessary adjustments t the plan that was develped during the Strategic phase. The main bjective f the pre-tactical phase is t ptimise efficiency and balance demand and capacity thrugh an effective rganisatin f resurces (e.g., sectr cnfiguratin management, use f scenaris, etc.) and the implementatin f a wide range f apprpriate ATFCM measures. The wrk methdlgy is based n a CDM prcess between the stakehlders (e.g. the NM, FMPs, AOs).The utput is the ATFCM Daily Plan (ADP) published via ATFCM Ntificatin Message (ANM) / Initial Netwrk Plan (INP) and via the NOP prtal. Tactical flw management takes place n the day f peratins and invlves cnsidering, in real time, thse events that affect the ADP and making the necessary mdificatins t it. This phase is aimed at ensuring that the measures taken during the strategic and pre-tactical phases are the minimum required t slve the demand / capacity imbalances. The need t adjust the riginal plan may result frm disturbances such as staffing prblems, significant Editin Validity Date: 03/05/2018 Editin: 22.0 Status: Released Issue 15

17 Netwrk Manager meterlgical phenmena, crises and special events, unexpected limitatins related t grund r air infrastructure, etc. and taking advantage f any pprtunities that may arise. The prvisin f accurate infrmatin is f vital imprtance in this phase, since it permits shrt-term frecasts, including the impact f any event and maximises the existing capacity withut jepardising safety. Pst peratinal analysis is the final step in the ATFCM planning and management prcess and takes place fllwing the tactical phase f peratins. During the pst peratins analysis phase, an analytical prcess is carried ut that measures, investigates and reprts n peratinal prcesses and activities thrughut all dmains and external units relevant t an ATFCM service. All stakehlders within the ATFCM service shuld prvide feedback n the efficiency f the ADP (ATFM measures and delays, the use f predefined scenaris, etc.), flight planning and airspace data issues. This phase cmpares the anticipated utcme (where assessed) with the actual measured utcme, generally in terms f delay and rute extensin, while taking int accunt perfrmance targets. The final result f this phase is the develpment f best practices and / r lessns learnt fr imprving upn thse peratinal prcesses and activities COLLABORATIVE DECISION MAKING (CDM) Cllabrative Decisin Making is a prcess which allws decisins t be taken by thse best psitined t make them n the basis f the mst cmprehensive, up-t-date accurate infrmatin and ensuring that all cncerned stakehlders are given the pprtunity t influence the decisin. This enables decisins agreed cllabratively t reach perfrmance bjectives and enable particular flights t be dynamically ptimised t reflect near r real-time events. A decisin t implement and execute ATFCM measures within the Area f Respnsibility (AR) f an FMP shall nrmally be preceded by a CDM prcess. This prcess prvides the varius rganisatins with the pprtunity t update each ther cntinuusly n events frm the strategic level t the real-time in a timely and accurate manner. T be efficient and reach the required bjectives, CDM must be: an inclusive prcess; a transparent prcess; a prcess that builds trust between the parties invlved. The rganisatin and structure f the ATFCM CDM prcess has been designed t ensure that the affected stakehlders, service prviders and airspace users alike, can discuss airspace, capacity / demand and flight efficiency issues thrugh regular sessins and frmulate plans that cnsider all pertinent aspects and pints f view. The discussins ccurring during the CDM activities shall lead t a cnsensus view and slutin implying an fficial cmmitment f each participant. In the Strategic phase the fcus is made n analysing majr and significant events as well as anticipated capacity shrtfalls fr individual ACCs / airprts. The result is a set f agreed ATFCM measures / slutins t be cnsidered fr implementatin in the pre-tactical and tactical phases. Cnferences and briefings take place in advance t cnsider these ATFCM events (e.g. axis cnferences) fllwing the CDM prcess. ATFCM measures cnsidered in pre-tactical / tactical phases culd be extracted frm preagreed strategic ATFCM measures r envisaged as ad-hc measures t respnd t a new situatin triggered by a change either in traffic demand r ATC system capacity. The CDM prcess ccurs daily (daily D-1 briefing e-cnference) and may be scheduled mre frequently depending n the traffic and capacity situatin. The utput f these daily cnferences is the ATFCM daily plan (ADP). The ADP is then cnstantly updated during the day f peratins thrugh further CDM prcesses. Tactical briefings and cnferences are scheduled depending n the traffic patterns and their intensity applicable t the area. Participants shuld include invlved NM staff, ANSPs (FMP and ATS units), AOs (chief r senir dispatchers and the AO Liaisn Cell), affected military authrities and airprt authrities, as applicable.

18 Netwrk Manager When, despite all attempts, an agreement cannt be reached, the implementatin f a specific regulatin shall ultimately be the respnsibility f the FMP, hwever a mnitring and eventual escalatin prcess t higher management shuld be envisaged if such a situatin endures. Whereas the final decisin n the regulatin implementatin is fr the FMP, the details n the regulatin itself shuld be crdinated with the NM except if therwise specified thrugh particular instructin. The implementatin f a Netwrk measure (e.g. level capping, reruteing) affecting the area f respnsibility f multiple FMPs remains the respnsibility f the NM wh shall ensure the Netwrk benefit thrugh the CDM prcess. Measures within the area f respnsibility f an individual FMP remain the respnsibility f that FMP. In such cases, the NM shuld be infrmed ATFCM SOLUTIONS TO CAPACITY SHORTFALLS Fllwing the SES cncept f Cllabrative Decisin Making (CDM), the NM shall cnsider cntinuusly and pr-actively all pssible ATFCM slutins thrugh a cntinual and seamless prcess as frm the strategic planning until the executin f peratins. The anticipatin f any event accrding t new infrmatin allws t minimise its impact n the Netwrk r t take benefit f any pprtunity and fine tune the plan accrdingly. T reslve capacity shrtfalls and imprve the management f the Netwrk capacity whilst minimising cnstraints, the fllwing ATFCM slutins have t be cnsidered, as depicted in the figure fllwing belw. These slutins will have t be thrughly evaluated befre a decisin t implement them culd be taken. Where verlads are detected and the CDM prcess is initiated, different ATFCM slutins shuld be cnsidered between the NM and the respective FMP(s). A general descriptin f the steps t prvide thse slutins can be fund belw: Optimise the utilisatin f available capacity.

21 Netwrk Manager 2.7. NM ATFCM SYSTEMS The Flw and Capacity Management systems are at the heart f the Air Traffic Flw and Capacity Management (ATFCM) services prvided by the Netwrk Manager. Their purpse is t prvide infrmatin abut current and anticipated air traffic demand and capacity in the Eurpean airspace and t prvide tls t supprt planning, executin and mnitring f ATFCM measures. The Flw and Capacity Management systems receive data frm the flight plan prcessing systems: Integrated Initial Flight Plan Prcessing System (IFPS) and Repetitive Flight Plan (RPL), and the Central Airspace and Capacity Database system (CACD), as well as live ATC data frm the Air Navigatin Service Prviders (ANSP), AO Psitin Reprts (APRs) messages and meterlgical (MET) data frm a meterlgical service prvider. The Flw and Capacity Management systems archive infrmatin int the Histrical Infrmatin Management systems, the Data Warehuse (DWH). The Flw and Capacity Management systems include the fllwing: The Enhanced Tactical Flw Management System (ETFMS) cmpares traffic demand, regulated demand and lad against capacity t assess pssible imbalances in the Eurpean airspace and allws the implementatin f measures t reslve these imbalances in the traffic, such as regulatins r reruteing. The PREDICT system cmpares frecasted traffic and capacity t evaluate the lad situatin fr the fllwing days (up t 6 days in advance). ATFCM measures may be implemented in this system in rder t assess their impact befre being applied in ETFMS. It uses the Demand Data Repsitry (DDR) t enrich histrical data with expected demand. The simulatin tl, SIMulatin and EXperiment (SIMEX), is used in strategic, pre-tactical and tactical ATFCM peratins. It enables Netwrk Operatins staff t simulate ATFCM measures r restrictins befre applying them t the previus systems. A functinality called OPTI-mise CON-figuratin (OPTICON) helps in the chice f sectr cnfiguratin and t enable better assessment f impact f the change f cnfiguratin. OPTICON functinality is prvided by PREDICT, the ETFMS and SIMEX as well.

Fr each area expected t be critical, a number f flws may be identified by the cncerned FMP r the NM, fr which ther ruteings may be suggested, that fllw the general scheme, but avid the critical area. These measures are knwn as scenaris. Level capping scenaris (FL): carried ut by means f level restrictins in the ETFMS r in the CACD thrugh dynamic ruteing restrictins. Reruteing scenaris (RR): diversin f flws t ff-lad traffic frm certain areas; implemented in the ETFMS r in the CACD thrugh dynamic ruteing restrictins. Alternative ruteing scenaris (AR): alternative rutes which are exceptinally made available t ff-lad traffic frm certain areas, implemented by regulatins with a lw rate.

PRE-TACTICAL AND TACTICAL PHASES OF OPERATIONS The pre-tactical wrking prcess starts six days befre the day f peratins, aims mainly at refining the details f the riginal frecast ver time and at preparing and prmulgating an ptimised and detailed peratinal plan (ATFCM Daily Plan - ADP). This wrking prcess is supprted by Cllabrative Decisin Making (CDM) activities invlving all partners cncerned (NM, ANSPs, AMCs, and AOs). T facilitate the CDM prcess, the FMPs shuld assist the NM t check their sectr cnfiguratins, activatin time perids and mnitring values fr crrectness, as displayed in PREDICT as frm D-6. Any differences shuld be reprted directly t the NM pre-tactical team. T discuss the ATFCM Daily Plan FMPs cncerned have an pprtunity t participate in CDM cnferences rganised by the NM. The tactical wrking prcess takes place n the day f peratins. The tactical phase cnsists f cnsidering the real-time events and applying any refinements needed t the ATFCM Daily Plan in rder t restre the ATFCM stability. The need t adapt the riginal plan may result frm significant weather phenmena, unexpected grund r space infrastructure pprtunities / limitatins, mre accurate FPL data, revised mnitring values, etc. The main purpse will be t minimise the impact f any disruptins and t take benefit f any pprtunity (e.g. pening f a new sectr, activatin f military areas, etc.). This will rely n the prvisin f the traffic and capacity situatin as accurately as pssible t all partners. The management f the traffic will be made thrugh capacity enhancements, cnfiguratin management, regulatins, cherry picking and a variety f scenaris like level capping r reruteing (bth mandatry and advisry). Reprting f events impacting ATC / ATFCM The FMP will pass t the NM infrmatin useful t ATFCM pre-tactical planning including but nt limited t: Mnitring values. Sectr cnfiguratins.

38 Netwrk Manager 5.1. UPDATING CACD DATA IN PREDICT / ETFMS Sme parameters f the CACD can be temprarily mdified fr a specific time frame during a day f peratins. This prcedure is aimed at cvering the temprary update f these values during pre-tactical and tactical peratins. Nte: Fr permanent changes t CACD see Ntificatin f updates t CACD. Whatever the rganisatin, the ANSP verseeing the FMP(s) within a State is respnsible fr establishing lcal prcedures, ensuring that the NM is in pssessin f all relevant data during each ATFCM phase, and the quality f that data. This is als stated in Cmmissin (EU) regulatin 255 / 2010 article 6. Updates t these parameters f the ETFMS / PREDICT shall always be made directly by the FMP via CIFLO r B2B Web Services. Mre specifically, n D-1, arund 17:00 UTC in winter time (16:00 UTC in summer time) the ATFCM daily plan is transferred frm PREDICT t ETFMS. Any updates dne befre this time are reflected in PREDICT and, afterwards they will be reflected in the ETFMS. During tactical peratins read / write access regarding RWY criteria updates is available t TWRs thrugh CITO. Nte: Fr DPI transmitting aerdrmes, nce DPI messages are received fr a flight, any updates via CIFLO / CITO will nt have any impact n this flight. Taxi time updates and actual SID used by aircraft riginating frm A-CDM (frm EOBT-3h up t TTOT) are cmmunicated t the ETFMS via DPI messages fr each individual aircraft. Befre EOBT-3h the prcedure shall be the same fr A-CDM and nn-cdm airprts. The updates in the pre-tactical and tactical phases are made via the CHMI (CIFLO / CITO) r B2B Web Services and may nly be applicable fr a perid f the specific day f peratins. These updates d nt affect the values stred in the NM CACD. The fllwing envirnmental data may be updated in the CHMI: Capacities; Mnitring Values (MV); Traffic vlume activatins / deactivatins; Sectr cnfiguratins; RWY criteria (see Runway criteria update fr specific details); Occupancy Traffic Mnitring Values (OTMV). RWY cnfiguratins may als be updated via the NOP prtal.

Cntact the AD Supervisr t address crrective fllw-up actins Runway criteria update Updating runway criteria may be used t imprve the accuracy f flight prfiles when there is a runway cnfiguratin change at ne particular aerdrme (de-icing, slw sequence n the taxiway, etc.) fr a specific time perid. FMPs thrugh CIFLO, and TWRs thrugh CITO, are able t mdify the runway in use and the taxi time data. A-CDM may mdify the taxi time fr individual aircraft via DPI messaging as well. When pssible, changes shuld be intrduced at least tw hurs in advance (befre the start time f the change); this prvides stability f the slt and prfile calculatins. The envirnmental data subject t this prcedure are: taxi time; runway in use fr departures; runway in use fr arrivals; Time t Insert in the Sequence (TIS); Time t Remve frm the Sequence (TRS); start time f validity; end time f validity. It is pssible tactically t update multiple runway activatin infrmatin. This permits t define / activate Right (R) / Left (L) / Central (C) runways r any ther active runway cmbinatin. All the abve parameters may be updated fr each different (active) runway and the flight prfiles are cmputed (and imprved) using this infrmatin. The taxi time may be mdified in the ETFMS fr a given time perid. Fr example: Start Time End Time Directin Rle Taxi TIS TRS Glbal L Glbal TRS and TIS are parameters used t prevent last minute mdificatins f the CTOT. The purpse f TRS is t avid changes in the CTOT fr flights already in departure sequence. The value f the TRS specifies the time befre which the CTOT will n lnger be mdified by the ETFMS (CTOT - taxi time - TRS). Similarly, the TIS makes sure that a CTOT imprvement cannt be sent at shrt ntice as the aerdrme requires sme time t intrduce an aircraft in the departure sequence (clck time + TIS + taxi time). Any runway cnfiguratin change will change the taxi time, TRS, TIS, departure and arrival prcedures (such as SIDs and STARs). If the cnfiguratin fr the Glbal is changed, bth Arrival and Departure will be affected (recalculated).

A mdificatin f taxi time triggers an autmatic AIM t infrm the AOs f the mdificatin and will impact the Flight Activatin Mnitring (FAM) prcess. In the event where the taxi time is increased sme issued slts may be recalculated and a few shrt ntice SRMs issued, nrmally giving greater delay. If the taxi time is decreased sme flights may get imprvements. This prcess prvides a mechanism t avid the use f shrt ntice mdificatins in sme cases. Prcedure Where they have identified a need t update runway criteria, the FMP / TWR staff shall: With CIFLO / CITO Insert as early as pssible all required data fr the mdificatin in CIFLO / CITO. Ntify the NM tactical team as early as pssible f the changes t runway criteria if they may pse a significant impact n the Netwrk. Withut CIFLO / CITO In case f unavailability f CIFLO / CITO, cntact the NM tactical team, prvide the data and request them t update the ETFMS. Upn receipt f such a request frm an FMP, the NM tactical team shall: In case the FMP reprts a change, assess the Netwrk impact and crdinate with cncerned FMPs. In case f unavailability f CIFLO / CITO, perfrm the updates requested by the FMP. In additin during the perid between the change in the taxi time and the start f recalculated slts being generated, the NM tactical team may: Apprve an extensin f the CTOT fr any flight with a prblem caused by the change f taxi time. All FMP / TWR staff and the NM tactical team updating the runway criteria shall: Ensure that the start time f any taxi time parameter mdificatin shall be set at minimum clck time + 30 minutes in rder t avid shrt ntice SRMs Ad-hc creatin f traffic vlumes A Traffic Vlume (TFV) is an element f the ETFMS / PREDICT allwing the selectin f a specific vlume f air traffic, in rder t cmpare the traffic lad and the declared mnitring values during the activatin perid. Any request t create a TFV that has t be used the same day shall be prcessed by the NM tactical team n duty. Mst f the infrmatin cncerning the TFVs is semi-dynamic data. It is pssible in real time t create a new TFV, prvided the Reference Lcatin (RL) exists, but nt t mdify r delete it. Semi-dynamic data may be mdified r deleted nly in the Lad database (prepared fr the next AIRAC cycle), but created in the Live database (which is the ne currently used).

The prcedure requires a separate NAT file fr each day. Prir t prcessing, a cnsistency check is applied n the received files. The autmated NAT flw replacement runs n PREDICT at 07:30 UTC and attempts t replace the Nrth Atlantic traffic fr D-3, D-2 and D-1 in this rder. A separate recvery jb runs n the hur and half hur every 30 minutes thrughut the day and attempts t run the NAT replacement if nt already dne, e.g. because the NAT files had nt yet been prvided. Usually the NM pre-tactical team des nt execute the manual replacement f NAT traffic n D-3, D-2 and D-1.

If the files are valid the cnfirmatin mails will be sent n receptin, at revised submissin time and when prcessing is cmpleted. There is n cut-ff time fr prcessing D-2 r D-3 NAT files. Autmatic prcessing f NAT files - mails The autmated prcedure will send mails t the frecast riginatr (NATS) and t the NM pretactical team as belw: A mail will be sent fr each received NAT frecast file if the file sent is valid in syntax, in cntent, it is nt a duplicate, and n errrs are fund during the reading r during the writing n the OPS FTPS. If the files are valid the cnfirmatin mails will be sent at the receptin and when prcessing is cmplete. Once the autmatic NAT replacement prcess is cmpleted, the flight intentins prcess is triggered fr D-2 and D-3. If D-3 file is nt received by 15:00 UTC (nly fr D-3) an will be sent infrming f the lack f data.

Lad n the OPS FTPS server a file cntaining the expected traffic n D-2 if an update t the predictin is required. There is n deadline time in this case. Lad n the OPS FTPS server a file cntaining the expected traffic n D-1 befre 10:30 UTC t ensure that it is prcessed befre 11:00 UTC. When required by a change f circumstances, prvide a subsequent NAT file fr each day and apply a cnsistency check n the files prir t prcessing. In case the file cntaining the predictin in D-3 is nt received befre 15:00 UTC, an will be sent infrming f the lack f data, if NATS des nt reply within the next 10 minutes a flag fr ptential issue will be raised (n alarm raised). In such cases, the NATS staff shuld: Cntact the NM pre-tactical team fr investigatin. The NM pre-tactical team shall: Check with CSO staff if and why the prcess has failed. Take any crrective actin that might be required. In case f need t manually substitute the NAT traffic (accrding t the circumstances abve), the NM pre-tactical team shall: Set up PREDICT t the crrect date fr the replacement day. Obtain the specified files fr Eastbund and Westbund replacement dates frm the received frm NATS. Ensure the selectin criteria are crrectly input.

Under these circumstances and t be sure that the slt assigned by ETFMS respects bth regulatins, the regulatins are linked in ETFMS. This actin ensures that the slt assigned respect the cnditins defined in bth regulatins. In sme cases it is imprtant that certain regulatins are respected regardless f which ne is the mst penalising ne (e.g. where there is a transitin between cnfiguratins r in sme exceptinal cnditins). The standard linking functin f regulatins was extended fr these specific cases. Regulatins may be aut-linked r manually linked in the ETFMS.

66 Netwrk Manager Prcedure Where cnsidered apprpriate the FMP staff may split regulated sectrs under their respnsibility. In such cases, the FMP staff shall: Intrduce the changes in CIFLO in a timely manner. If an verlad is detected in any f the new sectrs, decide either t apply ATFCM measures r t let ATC handle the verlad lcally. In case a regulatin is needed, crdinate with the NM tactical team and prvide all the assciated infrmatin fr the regulatin. Check the result and crdinate with the NM tactical team in case further actin is required. When splitting a regulated sectr, if an unacceptable bunching is bserved in ne r mre f the newly pened sectrs, the NM tactical team shall: Crdinate n the apprpriate measures with the FMP staff (if the FMP staff have nt yet reprted). If a regulatin is requested, cllect all assciated infrmatin fr the regulatin. Regulate the apprpriate sectrs frm the time the splitting takes place. Manually link the new regulatin(s) t the regulatin n the riginal sectr(s). Check the result and crdinate with the FMP staff in case further actin is required Cllapsing regulated sectrs A change f sectr cnfiguratin linked t a regulatin(s) may make it necessary t cllapse sectrs within the ETFMS descriptin. Such an actin may require regulatins t prevent any pssible bunching at the end f the riginal regulatin(s). By linking the new regulatin t the riginal ne(s) the bunching will be regulated in a cntrlled fashin. This is t ensure that all flights will have the new regulatin as the mst penalising ne. When cllapsing sectrs, if there is an verlad, these sectrs shuld be regulated at their MV befre they becme active, and linked t the riginal regulatin(s). When cllapsing sectrs usually the glbal capacity is reduced, e.g., frm 3 sectrs t 2 sectrs. Therefre sufficient time must be given t enable the traffic that entered the sectr(s) during the perid with a higher glbal rate t leave the sectr(s). Nte that this als depends n sectr size (the larger the sectr, the lnger a time margin is needed), but 10 minutes is an initially recmmended value. It is advisable t check the ccupancy cunts f the regulated cllapsed sectr as well, and identify the number and type f flights impacted in rder t better assess the time margin needed. When cllapsing sectrs it is necessary t stp the riginal regulatin(s) (which have a higher glbal rate) earlier than the cnfiguratin change time, and immediately start the new regulatin(s) (which have a lwer glbal rate). Fr instance, if the regulated sectrs A, B and C have t becme a single ABC cmbined at 10:00, it is advised t regulate A, B and C till 09:50 and start the ABC regulatin, linked t the ther 3 at 09:50. Prcedure Where cnsidered apprpriate, the FMP staff may cllapse regulated sectrs under their respnsibility. In such cases, the FMP staff shall: Intrduce the changes in CIFLO in a timely manner.

67 Netwrk Manager If an verlad is detected in any f the new sectrs, decide either t apply ATFCM measures r t let ATC handle the verlad lcally. In case a regulatin is needed, crdinate with the NM tactical team and prvide all the assciated infrmatin fr the regulatin. Check the result and crdinate with the NM tactical team in case further actin is required. When cllapsing regulated sectrs, if an unacceptable bunching is bserved in ne r mre f the newly pened sectrs, the NM tactical team shall: Initiate crdinatin n the apprpriate measures with the FMP staff (if the FMP staff have nt yet reprted). If a regulatin is requested, crdinate all assciated infrmatin fr the regulatin, and the time margin given fr traffic t leave the sectr. Regulate the apprpriate TFVs taking int accunt the time margin fr finishing and starting the regulatins as apprpriate. Manually link the new regulatin(s) t the regulatin(s) n the riginal sectr(s). Crdinate with the FMP any further fine tuning f the time margin given t reduce delays. Check the result and crdinate with the FMP staff in case further actin is required Linking gegraphically distant regulatins Tw heavily regulated TFVs, althugh gegraphically apart frm each ther, may share such a significant amunt f traffic that ne culd create a disruptin n the ther (e.g. bunching, verlad, frcing f flights). This can lead t a situatin f having an unslved verlad r bunching in ne regulatin because f flights frced by ther regulatins. In rder t avert this scenari, these regulatins shall be manually linked in the ETFMS. Due t the cmplexity f the Netwrk situatin, in sme cases it is nt easy t detect gegraphically independent regulatins that are influencing each ther and therefre candidates fr manual linking. The Influencing Regulatins feature in the ETFMS advises the user when a regulatin is hugely influenced by ther(s). As an illustrative example, a lw rate departure regulatin in EDD* between 06:00 and 09:00 with significant bunching at the end, and a lw rate arrival in GCTS between 12:00 and 16:00. Linking these tw regulatins wuld slve the disruptin created by the EDD* departure regulatin frcing its flights int the GCTS arrival regulatin. When creating / deep rectifying a regulatin the Netwrk Impact Assessment will list the regulatins that are influenced / influencing by the regulatin which is being edited. This data may be used t create the necessary links between regulatins. Prcedure When an applied regulatin has traffic bunching r an verlad, the NM tactical team shall: Determine if there are influencing regulatins that push traffic int the regulatin under analysis. Cntact the cncerned FMP(s) assciated t the bunching and crdinate pssible extensin f the regulatin perid in rder t smth the traffic at the end. In case an agreement is nt reached with the FMP, then: Manually link the regulatins accrdingly if they share a significant amunt f traffic. Link the regulatin having the prblem with the ne causing it. Editin Validity Date: 03/05/2018 Editin: 22.0 Status: Released Issue 66

68 Netwrk Manager Check if the result is satisfactry Aut-linking In the ETFMS a very penalising regulatin may frce flights int a regulatin that shall be prtected (e.g. zer rate regulatin). It is nt pssible r practical t manually link this high pririty regulatin t all ther regulatins likely t influence it. The aut-link functin has therefre been devised t vercme the limitatins f the manual linking functin. Aut-linking a high pririty regulatin actually links it t any ther existing regulatin in the Netwrk and, cnsequently, endeavurs t make sure that its criteria are always respected. Aut-linking was nt develped t replace the manual linking f regulatins, but as an exceptinal measure t be used when abslutely necessary. The aut-link shall nly be used fr: Zer rate regulatins (with r withut XCD); RVR regulatins; Scenaris (if deemed apprpriate accrding t the kind f scenari applied); Industrial actins; Very lw rate regulatins that have t be prtected fr peratinal reasns. It must be nted that: It is nt pssible t manually link regulatins that have aut-link enabled; Multiple aut-links in the system may prduce unusual effects as each aut-linked regulatin cmpetes with all ther aut-linked regulatins present; Aut-linking impses a perfrmance penalty n the system. Prcedure Wherever a situatin exists that may require the use f aut-linked regulatins, the NM tactical team shall: Where pssible, cnsult and fllw the specific prcedures fr the situatin invlved ensuring that the crrect regulatins are aut-linked (e.g. industrial actin prcedures r scenaris). Carefully cnsider the cnsequences f implementing an aut-link regulatin when n specific prcedures exist.

It cnsists f selecting flights creating cmplexity and applying ATFCM measures nly t thse flights. It may be used in cmbinatin with ther measures (e.g. regulatin, scenari, etc.) r ther ptins available t the FMP. The identificatin f the flights t be subject t the Netwrk cherry pick measure shall be carried ut by the FMP and the delay fr cherry picked flights shuld nt exceed 20 minutes. Fr predictability reasns, it is recmmended t apply MCP t flights clse t the cngested area and try t minimize the lead time f the MCP regulatin prir the start time f the htspt. It is als recmmended t mnitr the effectiveness f the MCP after cherry picking the selected flights. Flights already with a CTOT will nt nrmally be selected fr cherry picking. Hwever, if a peak can be mitigated by bringing such a flight frwards then crdinatin shuld take place and the NMOC will imprve the flight if pssible. In additin, flights departing frm A-CDM which are already in a departure sequence ( s CDM status) shuld nt be selected if there is any ther pssibility. Flights inside the MCP regulatin perid are exempted frm it.

If n imprvement is pssible fr a flight, check the reruteing / level capping pssibilities and ensure that any pssible prpsal fund is sent t the AO CTOT extensin management CTOT extensin requests are managed differently depending n whether the flight is departing frm an A-CDM r a nn-cdm airprt. Departures frm nn-cdm airprts Where an aircraft is departing frm a nn-cdm airprt and cannt be released in time t respect its slt tlerance windw (default is -5, +10min), the AO r the FMP / TWR may request a slt extensin fr that flight. Prviding the flight qualifies fr an extensin, it shuld be given. Otherwise the AO shall send a DLA message. These slt extensins are limited t a maximum f 10 minutes. A request fr a CTOT extensin fr traffic departing frm nn-cdm airprts qualifies when these cnditins are met: The request cmes within 20 minutes f the COBT required t achieve the slt (CTOT - taxi time - less than 20 minutes) and n later than the COBT (such a request shall riginate frm the AO).

The NM tactical team will neither check that these flights are frm the same peratrs nr that a frmal agreement exists. FMPs may request swaps fr tw flights f the same AO r, during critical events at airprts, als between any different AOs. Cnditins: A request fr a swap frm an AO, TWR r FMP is received. Fr flights departing frm A-CDM, the flight must nt be pre-sequenced (nt in s CDM status). The tw cncerned flights must be in slt-issued status. The tw flights must be subject t the same mst penalising regulatin. One swap per flight shall be accepted, except critical events upn FMP request. Prcedure The cncerned FMP / TWR (accrding t the mst penalising regulatin) may: Request the NM tactical team t swap tw specific flights. Having received a request fr a swap frm an AO r FMP / TWR, the NM tactical team shall: Identify the flights. Fr aircraft riginating frm A-CDM, ensure that the imprvement is nt befre the last knwn TTOT. Check the Netwrk Impact Display (NID). In case f a negative impact n the Netwrk, refuse the actin unless all impacted FMPs agree. Swap the tw flights if the cnditins are met and there is n significant impact n the Netwrk. Where the swap may be perfrmed, leave frced the imprved flight and unfrced the deterirated flight Managing the REA status f a flight The REA message is designed t enable lcal ATC / ARO units t infrm the ETFMS that a regulated flight is fully ready t depart befre its EOBT / CTOT. Depending n the time f receptin f the message in the ETFMS, the flight may receive a CTOT f up t 15 minutes earlier than the riginal EOBT accrding t the FPL. The flight set t REA status allws the shrtest available parameters fr imprving the new CTOT (the ETFMS will priritise a flight in REA status ver a flight in RFI status under the same cnditins). Nte: A flight in REA status will nly receive a new CTOT if there is available capacity, therwise the CTOT will nt change. The message may mdify the relevant taxi time by specifying a minimum line-up time (MINLINEUP). If n time is specified in the message, the system will use the default taxi time f the relevant aerdrme. The time at which the ETFMS receives a REA will be used as the NEWEOBT. On receptin f the message fr a regulated flight, the ETFMS will lk fr a CTOT n earlier than the clck time f the receptin plus the taxi time / MINLINEUP (NEWCTOT = NEWEOBT Editin Validity Date: 03/05/2018 Editin: 22.0 Status: Released Issue 85

87 Netwrk Manager + taxi time / MINLINEUP + delay). If an imprvement is pssible, the AO and ATC will receive an SRM. Traffic departing frm A-CDM may send a REA message by fllwing the same prcess as fr nn-cdm airprts. This may result in recalculating the CTOT and deleting all relevant infrmatin received in previus DPI messages. In sme CDM airprts, a T-DPI-s message might be used instead f a REA message and ETFMS will react in the same way (if TTOT is befre the STW). The cnditins that apply are: The cncerned flight is regulated. The message is sent up t 15 minutes prir t the EOBT f the flight. The message is nt sent later than the CTOT - taxi time / MINLINEUP - SRM minimum imprvement time (5 minutes). The True Revisin Prcess will als try t imprve the flight until then. Only ATC / ATFCM units can send a REA message. The REA message is sent via SITA / AFTN r via the CHMI. AOs shall cntact and crdinate with these units in case they want t benefit frm this functinality. Nte that the ATFM delay calculatin is expressed as: Fr REA messages: ATFM delay = CTOT (last EOBT received in IFPS + taxi time); Fr T-DPI-s messages: ATFM delay = CTOT TTOT (the TTOT in the last E-DPI / T- DPI-t received). Prcedure After being infrmed by an AO ready t depart befre its EOBT / CTOT (e.g. drs are clsed and flight ready t depart), the FMP / TWR staff shall: Decide if grund situatin permits an earlier departure taking int accunt the cnditins set in the afrementined list. In case an earlier departure is pssible, specify the minimum line-up time needed t let the aircraft g frm the current psitin t the RWY and, if the time needed is less r mre than the current taxi time, add it in the REA message (MINLINEUP). Send the REA message t the ETFMS CASA des nt push flights int clsed airspace When a flight is regulated, the CTOT may delay the flight int ne r mre IFPS time dependent cnstraints (e.g. RAD restrictins, CDR clsed), hence vilatins appear in enrute and / r airspace restrictins. The ETFMS tries t take the IFPS validity perid f each flight int accunt t prevent flights frm being pushed int a clsed airspace by an ATFM delay. This validity perid will act as a Slt nt after. This behaviur slves mst f the IFPS vilatins. Hwever, there are tw marginal situatins that can trigger crdinatin between the different actrs: a) Sme flights limited by the same IFPS restrictin (Case f V flights). In this case, CASA might allcate slts s that these flights will arrive exactly at the beginning f the IFPS validity perid, creating a bunching at the beginning f the IFPS clsure and, pssibly, inside the regulatin. These flights fr which the delay has been limited t meet the IFPS cnstraint will be marked in the slt list and the flight list with a V in the CTOT clumn. b) In sme rare cases it is impssible fr the CASA algrithm t meet bth the ATFCM cnstraint(s) and the IFPS validity perid cnstraint(s) (Case f X flights).

When a predetermined maximum time shift is reached, any such flight will then be suspended and will receive an FLS. In nrmal circumstances such a flight shall nt receive a departure clearance (fr mre details n FAM refer annex A, Flight data). An FMP may request the NM t disable FAM nly fr technical reasns, in such cases the NM Custmer technical Service desk and Operatins (CSO) shall be infrmed Und FAM The und Flight Activatin Mnitring (FAM) functinality has been designed t avid shifting and suspending flights when n CPRs are received. Due t intermittent radar cverage, it is pssible that an Entry Nde (EN) sends plts fr a part f the cvered airspace but nt at all fr anther part f the airspace. This culd happen in case f radar malfunctin. In this case, the FAM will assume that the entry nde is still wrking prperly because plts are received frm this EN. The FAM will then unduly shift and suspend flights. If a flight is wrngly shifted by the FAM, after unding FAM the flight will be un-shifted back t its FTFM (and ETOT) if it is nt regulated. If the flight is regulated, the ETFMS will recalculate its slt and the flight will be shifted t its new CTOT with a new RTFM.

This TFV Set (named LFDSNA) is used when a French FMP decides t apply a specific measure t help reduce the delay in anther French ACC, thus treating a flw glbally inside France instead f a specific sectr. The delay will be attributed t France rather than a specific FMP. The request fr the use f LFDSNA may be fr a variety f reasns and the apprpriate regulatin reasn shuld be applied in crdinatin with the FMP. Prcedure In the case a French FMP requests the implementatin f an ATFCM measure (e.g. regulatin r scenari) t prtect a glbal flw in France, the DSNA FMP staff shall: Request the NM pre-tactical / tactical team t allcate this delay t the TFV Set: LFDSNA instead f its wn lcal TFV Set using the phraselgy: Allcate delay t TFV Set LFDSNA.

This sectin sets ut the backgrund and prcedure assciated with the prcess f applying an arrival regulatin fr Heathrw during lw visibility prcedures (LVP), with the ptential fr 6 additinal MLS equipped aircraft landing per hur n the departure runway. Aircraft peratrs will identify MLS equipped aircraft by entering the designatr K in Item 10 f the flight plan submitted t IFPS (Integrated Initial Flight Planning Prcessing System). Prvisin f this infrmatin will identify MLS equipped aircraft in ETFMS. The LTC Supervisr will then determine whether r nt t apply an additinal MLS sub-rate and time perid ver which it will be applied. The LTC Supervisr will advise the UK FMP f the required flw rate. This will cnsist f the number f nn-equipped aircraft + the number f penders + the number f additinal MLS equipped aircraft. The glbal rate is the sum f the three values. Nn-MLS equipped aircraft shall nt ppulate this sub-rate. It is the glbal rate that will appear n the ETFMS lad / cunts display as the mnitring value (MV). A lack f MLS equipped aircraft will therefre result in apparent perids f underdelivery being displayed n the Lad display f the Traffic Vlume.

96 Netwrk Manager When a sub-rate is applied within the regulatin, the ETFMS searches between bth the nrmal rate and the sub-rate t allcate the best pssible slts available. As a result, if a number f MLS equipped aircraft are predicted t arrive tgether and there is space in bth rates, nly ne r tw f the MLS equipped aircraft will be allcated slts in the MLS sub-rate and the thers in the nrmal rate. This avids generating an unwarranted penalty t any particular flight and hence during the initial build up in the numbers f MLS equipped aircraft, the MLS sub-rate may nt be fully utilised. Certain EGLL traffic vlumes are cnfigured t accept MLS sub-rates within an applied regulatin. Prcedure Where an arrival regulatin is applied during lw visibility perids at EGLL, the NATS staff shall: Cllect all assciated infrmatin frm the LTC Supervisr and the required flw rate (nn-equipped aircraft + the number f penders + the number f additinal MLS equipped aircraft).

In situatins where departures are affected by deteriratin in lcal perating cnditins and ETOT r CTOT cannt be met within the apprved tlerance windws, the prcedure described belw may apply. The prcedure is designed t be in effect fr a maximum f a 1 hur perid f time, but it can be extended if necessary. The request has t be repeated every hur t cnfirm that the adverse cnditin cntinues and t verify if the current Netwrk situatin allws fr further extensins.

Updates cming frm E-DPI, T-DPI-t, T-DPI-s falling within the STW will be accepted and prfile updated. Shuld the updates bring the take-ff time after the STW, the ETFMS will cnsider it as a DLA message and may recalculate the CTOT, cancel the slt r suspend the flight. T-DPI-s bringing the flight befre STW will be taken as N slt befre, the flight will receive REA status and the flight shuld nt be frced befre the prvided TTOT time. A-DPI bringing the flight utside STW is autmatically rejected (by the system). In case f unmanageable de-icing prblems, DTW / STW extensin is pssible fr de-icing flights (if the de-icing status is present in the DPI message nly thse flights shuld be selected). If the slt extensin fr de-icing flights is nt sufficient t imprve the situatin, a general DTW / STW extensin may be requested. In such cases an extensin f 10 minutes t the upper bundary is pssible (see De-icing). Depending n hw difficult the adverse situatin is at the affected A-CDM, the maximum values fr the upper bundary f the DTW / STW may be further extended, but nly where capacity is reduced at least t a 20% f its nminal value (as stred in CACD).

Reduced landing rates at certain busy Eurpean airfields during lw visibility cnditins can lead t excessive hlding and a reductin in ATC capacity in adjacent ATC sectrs. There are three main pssibilities: D nthing. Apply a regulatin withut XCD. Apply a regulatin with XCD. The d nthing ptin is available if, despite the demand, the capacity is still sufficient and enugh airbrne hlding is available t accmmdate traffic demand. Nte: The risk f the D nthing r the implementatin f measures t late is that traffic will be held in the vicinity f the aerdrme and when the hlding stacks becme full, en-rute hlding and pssible refusal f aircraft frm adjacent ACCs may ccur.

114 Netwrk Manager this happens, it may be almst impssible t recver efficiently. The nly pssible actin is t apply measure(s) immediately with a rate f 0 / 60, nly gradually increasing the rate as the situatin stabilises. The FMP, after crdinatin with the TWRs is aware f the achievable landing rate fr inbund traffic assciated t RVR capabilities. Then a regulatin withut exceptinal cnditins (XCD) may be effective, as cnfirmatin is nt necessary. Nte: Cautin shuld be exercised if lw visibility cnditins are frecast fr a limited time, as frecasts may be inaccurate. In these circumstances a simple regulatin may be applied as a precautinary actin. It is easier t apply and imprve / cancel if the situatin imprves than t apply when it is t late and the aircraft are already airbrne. If the landing capabilities f the demand are nt knwn r thught t be largely made up f aircraft that are likely nt t meet the expected RVR, then a regulatin with XCD may be mre effective. Nte: The rle f the FMP is essential in these cnditins as the NM is effectively blind and must rely n cntinuus assessment f the traffic situatin by the FMP in rder t adjust in real time. The RVR value used may nt be directly related t the actual RVR at the aerdrme. It is a figure that may be used t filter the traffic which can be permitted t prceed Lw visibility cnditin - withut exceptinal cnditins (XCD) The prcedure is aimed at situatins where a regulatin is nt deemed apprpriate r a regulatin withut XCD is cnsidered mre beneficial.

115 Netwrk Manager Lw visibility cnditin - with exceptinal cnditins (XCD) The lw visibility XCD is implemented as fllws, a single regulatin shuld be created fr the required TFV: with XCD and a rate fr the lw visibility perid, and withut XCD and a rate as necessary when resuming nrmal peratins. There are three main cases indicating hw flights can be affected by this XCD-regulatin: Case 1 Flights estimating during the XCD time are suspended, if RVR is nt knwn. The FLS fr suspended flights will cntain a RESPBY time (clck + 20 minutes), enabling the AO t keep any present CTOT if the FCM with sufficient RVR is received by the NM in due time. The FLS will include the cmment: RVR UNKNOWN. Nte: Exempted flights (but nt lng haul) will als receive an FLS. If, later, the RVR is knwn and sufficient a DES will be sent r if it is insufficient a SAM will be sent. Nte: In the event f ETFMS failure the bking perid is extended t ETFMS recvery time +30 minutes. Case 2 Flights, estimating during the XCD time with RVR in FCM r flight plan nt cmpliant with the requirement, will be delayed t arrive in the TFV after the XCD perid. The SAM / SRM will include the cmment: RVR CRITERIA NOT MET. Nte: Exempted flights (but nt lng haul) will receive a SAM in rder t arrive utside the XCD perid. If later the RVR value f the exempted flight becmes sufficient an SLC will be sent. Case 3 Flights estimating during the XCD time, having replied with an FCM r flight plan giving an RVR value which is cmpliant t the ne that is stated in the XCD, will receive a SAM / SRM message in rder t get a slt fr landing during the lw visibility perid. Nte: Exempted flights (but nt lng haul) will nt receive a SAM but will be displayed inside the XCD perid with n delay. The fact that the EOBT f a delayed flight (because RVR criteria nt met) is n lnger shifted will increase the visible delays. Care shuld be taken that these flights with a large visible delay are nt manually frced int an XCD perid where they are unable t land. The decisin fr implementatin and wnership f the ATFM regulatin lies with the FMP. Prcedure The FMP staff shall: Crdinate with the NM tactical team the need f a regulatin and prvide the traffic vlume (arrival), rates, time perid f validity, regulatin reasn and RVR value.

Keep the Helpdesk infrmed. The NM DOM shall: Ensure that an AIM is prepared and issued infrming the users f the mdificatins De-icing The management f de-icing cnditins at aerdrmes within an FMP s area f respnsibility requires clse crdinatin between thse invlved in de-icing, ATC and ATFCM. Mdifying the taxi time parameters in ETFMS ensures that any additinal time fr de-icing at the aerdrme is absrbed by the taxi time and nt generated as ATC delay. It als ffers ATC and the AO greater flexibility in such cnditins. It is expected that the crdinatin prcess will be reflected in the taxi time. The NM will nt nrmally give additinal slt tlerance increases t flights departing frm aerdrmes where de-icing prcedures are in frce. Only when the situatin at a particular aerdrme becmes unmanageable due t unfreseen events such as the breakdwn f de-icing rigs, the DTW and STW culd be extended fr a maximum perid f 1 hur.
